Chapter 2206 Cousin is a capitalist lady 32
Zhang Hui is really looking forward to the mailman's arrival lately; if they don't come soon, she'll have to do the work herself.

What to do? She can't cook. Even the simplest thing, cooking food, is a huge challenge for her.

Washing clothes? Right now, she only has long-sleeved clothes, so washing them isn't too difficult. But it will get cold next month, and then she'll have to wash coats, sheets, duvet covers, and the like.

Good heavens! Zhang Hui felt dizzy at the thought of so many tasks waiting for her. No matter what, she had to get Zhang Yu to help with the work; she couldn't skimp on the money.

She had already made preparations; if her family was unwilling to sign the agreement or pay the money, then she would work harder and pay for it herself.

Anyway, if she runs out of money, she can ask her family for money. In short, she has really considered all the possibilities.

Fortunately, at the last minute, she finally obtained an agreement signed by the entire Zhang family. Looking at the agreement that had just been mailed to her, Zhang Hui burst into tears. It was such a close call!

She quickly stopped crying. "Honestly, in the end we still have to get the agreement over, so it's better to mail it sooner rather than later and save ourselves the trouble of worrying."

Zhang Hui felt that Zhang Gui and his group were really too slow in their actions, dragging it out until now. While grumbling about her dissatisfaction with Zhang Gui, Zhang Hui started reviewing the agreement they had written to see if there were any errors.

After a thorough inspection, Zhang Hui breathed a long sigh of relief. There was no problem, absolutely no problem.

Zhang Hui also signed her name on the agreement, as she was also a party to the agreement and therefore had to sign it.

When Zhang Yu saw Zhang Hui enter the house with a smile, she knew there must be good news. It seemed the postman had just come by, and Zhang Fu and the others had already signed the agreement.

Just as she had guessed, the Zhang family's letter arrived: "The agreement has been signed?"

Zhang Hui nodded repeatedly, "Yes, the agreement has arrived, take a look."

Zhang Hui was about to sit down when she noticed a math book in front of Zhang Yu. "Are you reading?"

Zhang Yu hummed in agreement, "Yes, I'm reading, otherwise I have nothing to do." Zhang Hui knew that her grades weren't good, so in order to excel in the upcoming college entrance examination, she had to start preparing now.

Zhang Hui pouted. No matter how much she studied, she was still a complete idiot. "Besides, we can't take the college entrance exam now."

There's no more college entrance exam, so what's the point of studying? Zhang Hui really couldn't understand what Zhang Yu was thinking.

"I have nothing to do, so I read books. What else can I do? Besides, it's so cold in the Northeast in winter. There's no work in the fields, and we can't go up the mountain. What else can we do but read books?" Although there is occasional snow removal work, how long can that keep me busy? It's better to read books.

That's true. Winter starts to snow in October and lasts until March of the following year. The heavy snow closes off the mountains, so there's not much to do besides reading at home.

"You said, we should talk to the village chief and ask if we can go back." Since there's nothing to do here from November to March of next year, why not consider going back?
Zhang Hui dreams of going back home, where she can eat and drink well, and most importantly, no one will give her a hard time. She can live a very comfortable life.

"Go back?" Zhang Yu shook her head. "Why would I go back?" Zhang Yu waved the agreement in her hand. "With just this one agreement, I've already offended my family. If I go back, I'll be in big trouble."

"Besides, when I go back, I won't be working or going to school, so there will definitely be a lot of work waiting for me to do."

“You can go back, I’m not going back.” During their first year as sent-down youth, unless there were very special circumstances, they absolutely could not go back. “Besides, the journey takes a long time, forget it.” Zhang Yu indicated that if Zhang Hui wanted to go back, she could.

Zhang Hui had originally thought that if Zhang Yu was also interested, they could take over the shift and go back together. However, she didn't expect that Zhang Yu hadn't even considered going back. "We'll spend the Spring Festival here. Aren't we all alone?"

"Wouldn't I be more lonely if I went back? When you go back, your parents will definitely welcome you with all sorts of welcomes and will prepare food, drinks and other necessities for you."

"As for me, when I get back, I'll be busy preparing things for them, and I'll do all the housework."

"Oh, and also, with the Spring Festival approaching, there's a surge in supplies, so I need to go out and queue up." Zhang Yu recalled how busy the original owner would be every Spring Festival.

"Zhang Tao also has a girlfriend. He wants to save face in front of her, so he asked me to help clean the house. What should I do?" The original owner was in a rural area in Northeast China at the time, so of course she couldn't ask for leave to go back for the New Year. In the end, Zhang Juan went instead.

Because of this, Zhang Juan complained to Zhang Hui a lot about how excessive Zhang Tao's in-laws were, nitpicking in every way, saying that this should be this way and that way, and after working hard for a long time, there wasn't even a cup of water, saying that they didn't have her cup.

No water was provided, let alone food. In the end, she went back hungry and still had to cook for the Zhang family, which made Zhang Juan very angry.

What angered her even more was that she was cleaning Zhang Tao's in-laws' house for free and didn't receive any benefits. The other party even went around saying that she didn't do a good job, that the house wasn't clean at all, and that they had to redo it, etc.

Zhang Juan was furious. She went to Zhang Tao, but he also said that she hadn't cleaned the house properly. This infuriated Zhang Juan, but she could only let it go because even if Zhang Fu and the others found out, they would only criticize her for not doing a good job.

Zhang Yu also knew that after Zhang Juan made this exception, she would have to go over to clean the house during holidays, because since they were family, they shouldn't be polite.

Yes, she told Zhang Juan not to be polite when she was doing chores. Zhang Juan was so angry that she cursed Zhang Hui in a letter. After the original owner of the body came along, thinking that Zhang Juan was still young, she wrote to Zhang Tao and asked him not to let Zhang Juan go to his in-laws' house to help with cleaning.

He also wrote a letter to Zhang Juan, saying things like, "We're all brothers and sisters, so don't be so petty."

This move, of course, offended Zhang Tao and his wife, as well as Zhang Juan. She would never do such a stupid thing in her life. If Zhang Juan really didn't want to do it, could Zhang Tao force her?

Zhang Juan isn't incapable of making a fuss; she's just worried that if she doesn't act, Zhang Fu and the others will be dissatisfied, Zhang Tao will be angry, and she won't have a good time at home. So she wrote to Zhang Hui, hoping that this good older sister would help her stand up for herself.

As it turned out, Zhang Hui didn't step forward, but the original owner did. Zhang Yu felt that this was probably Zhang Hui's way of showing the original owner, knowing that she would definitely cause trouble.

“It’s good that you go back. Zhang Bin and the others are all at work, and there’s no one in line. You can line up with Zhang Juan.”

"If you go back home for the New Year, I'll be more relaxed. I can cook whatever I want then." Most importantly, after dinner, Qian Hao and the others won't look for her unless it's an emergency or something important. Only Zhang Hui will look for her whenever she thinks of something.

Zhang Hui quickly shook her head, "Forget it, I'm not going back." With all these things happening at home recently, she didn't know how angry they would be.

More importantly, she spent most of the money sent from home. Although Zhang Yu's cooking was not cheap, she liked to eat pastries and the like, which required money.

Going back will definitely cost money, and if her family can't reimburse her for the round-trip expenses, she really can't afford such a large sum.
